The Fundamentalist Path to Electoral Oblivion
I find myself at somewhat of a loose end at the moment in light of the 2024 General Election results. We lost every single one of our central belt seats – the region that in recent years our support was strongest, and there needs to be some accounting done in light of this. I’m of […]
Good Riddance
Neil Scott on Theresa May’s last speech in the Commons. I’ve just watched as Theresa May made her last speech in Westminster (and Harriet Harman… and what a contrast… i’d urge you to find them on YouTube).

Election Balls…
